Abstract
Short-term high-temperature pretreatment can effectively shorten the maturity period of organic waste composting and improve the fertilizer efficiency and humification degree of products. To investigate the effect and mechanism of the end products on the saline-alkali soil improvement and plant growth, the short-term high-temperature pretreatment composting (SHC) and traditional composting (STC) were separately blended with saline-alkali soil in a ratio of 0-40 % to establish a soil-fertilizer blended matrix for cultivating Lolium perenne L. The pot experiments combined with principal component analysis showed Lolium perenne L. planted in 20 % SHC-blended saline-alkali soil had the best growth effect, and its biomass, chlorophyll content, and plant height were 109-113 % higher than STC. The soil physicochemical property analysis showed that SHC and STC increased the soil nutrient content, humification degree, and enzyme activity at any blending ratio. The microbial analysis showed that 20 % SHC in the saline-alkali soil stimulated the growth of functional microorganisms and the addition of SHC promoted the sulfur cycle, nitrogen fixation, and carbon metabolism in the soil-plant system. The correlation analysis showed that pH; nutrient contents; and urease, catalase, sucrase, and phosphatase activities in the saline-alkali soil were significantly correlated with plant growth indexes (p < 0.05). Georgenia and norank_f__Fodinicurvataceae had a stronger correlation with four types of enzyme activities (p < 0.01). SHC improved the saline-alkali soil and promoted plant growth by adjusting soil pH, increasing soil nutrients, and influencing soil enzyme activity and dominant flora. This study provides a theoretical basis for applying SHC products in soil improvement.

Abstract
The widespread distribution of saline-alkali soil around the world affects the health of ecological systems and the development of the national economy by limiting the growth of plants. However, the commonly used remediation technologies have the drawbacks of low efficiency, high cost, and secondary pollution. This study investigated the feasibility and efficacy of novel combined micro-nanobubbles (MNBs) and microbial agent (MA) technology for the remediation of saline-alkali soil. The results demonstrated that the combined MA-MNBs method greatly renovated the properties of saline-alkali soil compared with the technologies of single utilization of MA or MNBs process in the laboratory. The method resulted in a reduction of soil electrical conductivity and pH levels, an improvement in soil fertility, and the formation of soil aggregates. Moreover, the method significantly impacted the growth of plants, particularly in plant length, dry weight, and rhizome elongation. Further high-throughput sequencing and gene expression analysis revealed that the MA-MNBs method enhanced the abundance of soil microbial community compared with single MA and MNBs treatment. Gene enrichment analysis revealed that the MA-MNBs method could compensate for the shortcomings of single MA treatment and enhance the expression of energy metabolism and salt stress-related genes attributed to MNBs treatment, thereby significantly improving the growth and development of plants. Consistently, 6115 kg/ha of rice was yielded in the field for the saline-alkali soils using this MA-MNBs method, with zero crops before remediation. This study provided a novel, efficient, and green strategy for the remediation of saline-alkali soil without adding any chemicals.

Abstract
A novel actinomycete, designated strain q2T, was isolated from the saline-alkaline soil, collected from Daqing, Heilongjiang province, China. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain q2T belongs to the genus Isoptericola, and showed the highest sequence similarity to Isoptericola halotolerans KCTC 19046T (98.48%) and Isoptericola chiayiensis KCTC 19740T (98.13%), respectively. The average nucleotide identity values between strain q2T and other members of the genus Isoptericola were lower than 95% recommended for distinguishing novel prokaryotic species. Cells of strain q2T were Gram-staining-positive, aerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped and non-spore-forming. Colonies of strain q2T were golden-yellow pigmented, tidy edged and smooth surfaced. Growth occurred at 15-37 °C (optimum, 29 °C), pH 7.0-10.0 (optimum, pH 8.0). The predominant respiratory quinones were MK-9(H4) and MK-9(H2). The main detected polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylinositol mannoside. The peptidoglycan compositions were L-alanine, D-aspartic, L-glutamic acid and L-lysine (type A4α). The major cellular fatty acids (> 10%) were anteiso-C15:0, iso-C15:0, and anteiso-C17:0. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was determined to be 69.7%. Based on the phenotypic, physiological, genotypic, and phylogenetic data, strain q2T represents a novel species of the genus Isoptericola, for which the name Isoptericola croceus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is q2T (= GDMCC 1.2923T = KCTC 49759T).

Abstract
Salinization is recognized as a threat to agricultural productivity and land resources in global arid desert regions. To date, field soil improvement schemes have met with minimal success to date. We aimed to improve saline-alkali soils by assessing the effects of combining subsurface pipe (Pa) and vertical well (Sa) drainage measures on agricultural soils ecosystem. In a five-year field experiment, soil was sampled 0.5 m, 5 m, 7.5 m horizontally away from the Pa, and 0.5 m, 30 m, 60 m horizontally away from the Sa. Findings indicate that the soil electrical conductivity (EC) decreased from 16 dS m-1 to 3 dS m-1 at a 0-80 cm depth, and the soil desalination efficiency was great at the 0-300 cm depths (≥ 32%) than at the 400-700 cm depths (-14%-74.7%). The combined Pa and Sa drainage measures significantly decreased the species richness and quantity of soil microbial communities, and their negative impact on observed species was irreversible within 1 year. The farther the horizontal sampling conducted from the Pa and Sa, the greater the structural similarity of the microbial community at the genus level, higher the catalase, acidic protease, and neutral phosphatase activities, and lower the alkaline phosphatase activity. The overall decrease in groundwater level from 2016 to 2020 was 5.7 m. The seed cotton yield increased by 3.2 t ha-1. The results suggest that the value of saline-alkali soil can be improved by combining Pa and Sa drainage measures. Our research provides guidance for further effective utilization of agricultural water and soil resources and the sustainable development of the soil ecosystem in arid desert areas.
